[Just planning to scroll through Weibo.] Xu Xingguang replied to Huo Wen’an’s text and then ignored him, directly opening Weibo.
Seeing that Xu Xingguang didn’t respond, Huo Wen’an opened Weibo too and imdiately saw a trending topic in the entertainnt section.
#Can a Dodgy Guy Really Be an Idol?#
Huo Wen’an clicked on it with a puzzled look and, after reading a few posts from influencers and users’ complaints in the comnts section, understood what was going on.
It turned out to be about a male artist nad Xu Yue, who was being boycotted by the entire entertainnt circle for recklessly mouthing off on the internet, maliciously insulting won, and making so problematic comnts.
Huo Wen’an had no interest in any of this, so he logged off Weibo, wished Xu Xingguang a good night, and went to sleep early.
Lately, his schedule had been particularly regular, avoiding staying up late whenever possible.
He wanted to live a bit longer.
Xu Xingguang was also looking at this trending topic.
[Zongheng Entertainnt’s signed male artist Xu Yue has been lurking under an alias, making a ss in various live streams and forums, posting a lot of unpleasant comnts. Can soone like this really be idol material?]
Below the post were over ten screenshots of Xu Yue under an alias, making inappropriate comnts about won and joking about kids in live streams and forums.
Many influencers were simultaneously exposing Xu Yue’s scandals, with a unified ssage, clearly suggesting soone orchestrating this from behind the scenes.
Is reckless mouthing off illegal?
When victims do not press charges, mouthing off is indeed not illegal. Even if pursued legally, it might only involve defamation charges.
Yet, mouthing off reveals a person’s character and upbringing.
As a contracted artist, especially one heavily promoted by a major company like Zongheng Entertainnt, Xu Yue should not be a societal trash heap spewing vulgar, insulting words like ’mom’, ’fuck’, ’sell’, ’cool’.
When virtue doesn’t match the position, calamity will follow.
Xu Yue thought that hiding behind a screen under an unrecognizable alias would allow him to run wild on the internet, slander and spread rumors about others at will.
Little did he know, the negative statents he posted online would eventually beco a sharp weapon in the hands of those with motives, enough to shatter his reputation and ruin his future.
Xu Xingguang finished reading the ssages, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly.
You Mingyue finally couldn’t resist taking action.

Late night, the public relations team at Zongheng Entertainnt was summoned to the office for an ergency eting.
Also summoned was Xu Yue, who had just finished showering, dressed in pajamas and was ready to rest.
On the way to the company, his manager had already inford him in detail about the situation unfolding online over the phone.
Now, sitting in the office, Xu Yue held a cup of tea, sipping calmly.
He didn’t seem to think that the scandals on Weibo could cause him any substantial damage.
He was only blowing off steam, expressing a few unpleasant remarks, but hadn’t committed any truly harmful acts.
In Xu Yue’s view, as a male artist, as long as he avoided drugs, stayed away from indecency, and kept his hands clean of blood, he hadn’t done anything wrong.
After all, in life, regardless of age or gender, hasn’t everyone blown off steam at so point?
His manager, Xie Qing, wearing a black suit with a red collar, followed Zongheng Entertainnt Director Qin Tai and the Head of PR Xue Chang’an into the room.
Upon seeing Xu Yue enjoying his tea leisurely, Xie Qing beca furious. "Are you seriously in the mood for tea right now?!"
Xie Qing snatched Xu Yue’s teacup, slamd it onto the desk forcefully, and yelled angrily, "Haven’t I told you, as a public figure, you must be mindful of your words and actions?!"
Lately, she had noted with satisfaction that Xu Yue was actively following vocal coaching, spending his free ti working out, believing him to be a grounded and steady young man.
Only newcors who work hard and are grounded can go far in the entertainnt industry.
But turns out, outwardly he appeared decent, yet once he got hold of his phone, he beca a sleazy dodgy guy.
Xu Yue instinctively refuted, "I’ve always been mindful of my behavior. I haven’t even visited a supermarket lately, just been learning from the teachers every day. Those online comnts were posted by a while ago, I even applied for a small account, who knew it would be exploited."
After speaking, Xu Yue still felt unlucky and muttered, "Definitely a rival company deliberately targeting !"
Xie Qing, seeing that Xu Yue showed no sign of remorse and blad a rival company, was livid. "A rival might want to target you, but they’d need sothing to go after! If you hadn’t done any of this, spoken such words, how could anyone hold onto those small faults?"
